Logging in to the portal
My e-Services is a service channel for individual persons or persons acting on behalf of a company. The service requires identification. Traficom is responsible for ensuring that the digital service is compatible with the most common web browsers and utility software but not for the functioning of the service if the user uses custom software solutions, for example. The service user is responsible for the searches he or she performs in the service and for the accuracy of the information submitted via the service.
Private customers
Private customers log in and verify their identity using the Finnish government's shared Suomi.fi identification service. Traficom allows identification through bank identifiers, a mobile certificate or a certificate card.
Organisations
Organisation customers can log in using Suomi.fi identification service. (External link) Each organisation must authorise its assignees with Traficom via the Suomi.fi e-Authorizations service. (External link)

eIDAS
eIDAS authentication is an authentication method for European customers that do not have Finnish identification means. With eIDAS authentication you can, for example, view the public registration information of Finnish vehicles and watercrafts.

Obstacles to using e-services
There are reasons why e-services may be unavailable. One is that the status of a service has been set as "passive" for a user within My e-Services. This may, for example, be because the user's vehicle is recorded as having an alteration prohibition in the register.
Data protection
Data in the portal is transferred over a secured connection (SSL). A security audit has been performed on the portal.
